Leicester City transfer latest on four deals as 11pm deadline looms
The 2025 January transfer window is just hours from its 11pm closing time, with Leicester City fans nervously looking on as they hope for some big signings to turn around their season - here's the latest gossip and rumours.
Craig Dawson
With Conor Coady's spot at the back being taken over by Wout Faes it was thought as though he would make a move in January in the search for regular minutes.
The rumours were reported to have come to fruition when relegation rivals Wolves came knocking with a somewhat bizarre offer - discussing a swap deal for centre-backs Craig Dawson and Conor Coady in a surprise deadline-day switch.

Although with just hours to go the deal may be on the rocks, as it's understood that the swap deal may have fallen through. A deal could still be possible, but it seems unlikely to come to fruition.
Loum Tchaouna
The Lazio winger and French youth international has had widespread interest from clubs across Europe but the Foxes, Burnley and PSV Eindhoven are thought to be leading the race for a last-minute deal. The French winger would certainly tick the right boxes for City matching Ruud van Nistelrooy's style of play.
According to Fabrizio Romano PSV seem to have had an offer already accepted for a loan deal with an obligation to buy the 21-year-old in the summer for €13 million plus add-ons, but with the deal not yet official there is still time for city to swoop in.
Wilfred Ndidi
There is still some rumours that despite some recent injuries, Wilfred Ndidi could be on his way out with Athletico Madrid interested in the defensive midfielder.
Some conflicting reports have surfaced arguing that Ndidi is unhappy at the King Power and is wanting a move away, however the club looks to be resisting any move with the 28-year-old an important part of the squad.
It's believed the Nigerian international won't be going anywhere unless a replacement is offered up this window, and with just hours left, is looking increasingly unlikely.
Facundo Buonanotte
There are some reports that midfielder and winger Buonanotte's time at the King Power Stadium could be cut short with Brighton considering a move to recall him from loan.
If the Argentinian was to return to the south coast, Brighton would have to pay a fee for cancelling the deal early. That now seems very unlikely.
